Title: Docker; Delivers the next generation of IBM Z infrastructure to run mission critical applications

Presentation Abstract Description:
Vicom Infinity is partnering with IBM and Docker to deliver the next generation of IBM Z infrastructure to run mission critical applications using the powerful Docker containers. This presentation will discuss how Docker enables the IBM Z as a powerful and secure “landing zone” for developers to create advanced next generation applications and services using their favorite Docker tools. The IBM Z infrastructure provides unique services specifically tailored for safely running modern cognitive learning and Blockchain applications in a highly performant manner including unrivaled compute density, secure LPARs, advanced compression technology, cryptographic co- processing cards, inflight/at rest encryption, and locating the application closer to the data. By incorporating Docker Enterprise with IBM Z, developers now have a way to access these unique services without having to understand any of the underlying IBM Z Infrastructure. The familiar Docker experiences your development teams are building with on x86 Linux and Windows operating systems are now exactly the same on IBM Z. In turn, Docker, IBM, and Vicom Infinity view this as a unique opportunity for standardizing software delivery across your organization and a chance to maximize your investments with IBM Z as an integral part of your Cloud transformation strategy. During this lunch ‘n learn teleconference you will learn how to leverage IBM Z and Docker as an integral part of your Cloud transformation journey.
